We are more than half way done and here is another chapter for you guys, sometimes I feel like am not good enough but I still can't stop writing though I love to read more but I know some of you really appreciate my work... 



Enjoy

The king had defeated his enemies though it has taken four whole months,twenty weeks and now he was dying to see his queen and one could imagine how this news will break him,he had already spent ten months away from her,forty weeks,two hundred and eighty days,six thousand,seven hundred and twenty hours and he wished he could fly but he had already sent a message to her to prepare for his arrival,he wanted it to be a surprise but he couldn't wait for his queen to embrace him and couldn't wait any longer so he told them their arrival making him wish he could fly but only heaven knows the gate that awaits him

Atenna had been seen and heard screaming since she became queen making people surprised as they thought she was supposed to glow and enjoy life but how wrong they were,she had been taking sleeping medicine which helps her to sleep little better but still is haunted by nightmares making her eye bugs slightly visible

Atenna sits on her throne when a guard enter holding two letters,one with the king's royal symbol on it and the other with her kingdom's royal symbol making her smile in a fond memory of how her father would be proud of her success now but dreads the other one

She opens her father's letter and stops and stare at the letter in confusion

Atenna my daughter,am so proud of you,so you had finally gotten rid of that useless queen,I am proud to call you my daughter, when I received your letter I was elevated and when you invited me to the royal ball that is being held in mine and your husband honour I couldn't stop grinning, finally about to meet my son in law,I will surely be there at the exact time to honour this invitation,after all I can't miss my party,can I?

                                  Your father

She had never sent her father a letter and she had no idea about any party and that's was her confusion,though it was his father's idea to kill the queen so that the king can make her his queen and merge both their kingdom and by that his father will be rich by her being the queen,though she knew his father was greedy but she loved him and she was hopeless for her father's love and also she was in love with the king so she agreed instantly and she may say her father was well aware of this fact so he used it to his advantage.

She opened the second letter,and now understood all that the first letter meant

Mine queen,how are you,I had not been receiving your letters but don't you worry as am on my way back, expect me in the next three days and I expect to see you plan your first welcome party in my honour,I can't wait to see you as I had missed you terribly,I hope you have been eating well or else the cooks are dead and I hope you you are not hurt or else I will castrate all the guards,I can't wait to have you in my arms,you don't know how much you mean to me but I will make sure you know when am back,please be safe little one

                                         Yours king

Atenna gulp visibly,after reading it,she knew her life lay in her hands so she has to step on her game,she sat thinking of how to escape this mess when a guard enters holding another letter and handed it to her as all color drained from her face when she opened the letter

Atenna,thinking hard I see,I saw your lips twitching when you read your father's letter,how sweet right, happy union of father and daughter but will he be killed by your so called claimed husband or you will go first,after all I can't decide only the king will,so stand up and get ready as you have a party to plan and please make it a memorable one as it may be your last party after all and besides the king love red,it's was a free tip...
We will meet at the ball,good luck
But the queens corpse is still missing

Atenna sat straight and pondered on these letters which made her head ache the more she thinks about it but one thing was clear she had to plan the party but what will happen? but only time shall tell
